What do you conclude about the equation that you used for your estimate?
Find the steady-state temperature distribution in a metalic plate 20 cm by 60 cm if the two adjacent plates are held at 200 degree and the other two sides at zero degree.
Recent studies show that the major energy consumption
in Fijian villages is wood which is used
for cooking on open fires. Typical consumption of wood
is 1 kg/person/day. (a) Estimate the heat
energy required to boil a 2 litre pot full of water.
Assuming this to be the cooking requirement of
each
person, compare this with the heat content of the
wood, and thus estimate the thermal
efficiency of the open fire. (b) How much timber has to
be felled each year to cook for a village
of 200 people ? Assuming systematic replanting, what
area of crop must the village therefore
set aside for fuel use if it is not to make a net
deforestation ?
